* IC: stress test logic; should also help with recursive module dependencies; WIP
* IC: loading from .rod files begins to work reliably
* removed ugly hacks
* yet another silly mistake
* cleanups
* ast.nim: cleanups
* IC: no more sym.tab field, stored externally in the module graph

* rodfiles: added compilerproc and export sections
* rodfiles: added all the missing sections
* rodfiles: track the missing information

* refactoring: adding an IdGenerator (part 3)
* refactoring: adding an IdGenerator (part 4)

* refactoring: adding an IdGenerator (part 5)
* IdGenerator must be a ref type; hello world works again
* make bootstrapping work again
* progress: add back the 'exactReplica' ideas
* added back the missing exactReplica hacks
* make tcompilerapi work again
* make important packages green
* attempt to fix the build for 32 bit machines (probably need a better solution here)
* Expand hoisted default params in sem
Introduce ast.newTree{I,IT}
Add test for default params in procs
* Cleanup
* Simplify hoist transformation and expand test
The new mechanism can deal with more complex scenarios such as
not nil field appearing in a non-default case object branch or
a field within a generic object that may depend on a when branch.
The commit also plugs another hole: the user is no longer able
to create illegal default values through seq.setLen(N).
* mark user defined destructors with sfOverriden to simplify the logic
* refactoring in preparation to merge liftings and generic instantiations for destructors
* ast: introduce nkHiddenTryStmt for destructor generation in order to be able to optimize better the code later on
* renamed 'patterns' switch to 'trmacros' as it was totally misleading before
* destructors: introduce tfCheckedForDestructor flag in preparation of strict =destroy checking
* test for invalid/too late destructor introductions
* liftdestructors: make code robust for nimsuggest
* --newruntime works for hello world again
* newruntime: code generation for closures
This also makes the first baby steps towards a sound treatment of
higher-order kinds (type type int).
Adds test cases showcasing the new features.
* Also fixes breakage after the rebase
